Mother's Day advice for Ron Artest, Brett Favre

Hopefully everyone remembered dear old mom today, with either a hug and flowers or even just a hokey Hallmark card.

Because over the years, most of our mothers were there to drive us to swimming lessons, buy us baseball cards and sit in the stands even though there was no chance of us getting off the bench during a game.

Moms frequently are our most consistent source of advice, and I only can imagine what kind of sage wisdom has been instilled in prominent athletes.

Here's what I'm guessing a few moms would tell their grown-up babies today:

Ron Artest: "Ronny, stop shaving random designs in the side of your head. That wasn't even cool in the mid-90s."

Brett Favre: "Don't be wishy-washy. You can only cry wolf so many times before people stop believing you."
